my Dell XPS laptop ( almost 2 years old) has the Intel Pro wireless card. It
has worked with Kubuntu without much fuss.. I think it is the 2915 model.
Funnt thing, when I first got the laptop with XP on it, the wireless wouldn't
work to my new Netgear router. I had to download new firmware for the
wireless card before it would even work in Windows.
